I am getting ready to replace all my window trim on the interior, with red oak and, naturally, I do plan to stain it. How do I prep the window to get the 1/4 in reveal and flawless miter joints? I don’t plan on the trim being complex, but rather simple, with maybe a pattern in a 2 1/2″ to 3″ wide trim. Thx

Have you considered a style that uses plinth and ropsettes to avoid needing to do mitres?
